Hi!
I have a question regarding MacTCP and NCSA Telnet. I have a network of
LocalTalk Macs, one of which has a scsi/ethernet box and is running Apple
Internet router.On the same ethernet as the scsi/ethernet mac is a multigate
with the EtherTalk interface configured to decode Ethertalk packets into
IP packets.  

When I use NCSA Telnet on one of my other LocalTalk machines (non MacTCP) 
version, I can telent to a Unix host on the ethernet no worries - the
multigate dynamically allocates an IP number for the LocalTalk Mac.

HOWEVER, when I use the MacTCP version (1.0.1) of NCSA Telnet (2.3 or 2.4)
I can't get a telnet session going! I have configured MacTCP with the correct
LocalTalk zone for the Multigate (same as non MacTCP version) and have entered
the correct IP address for the multigate.  I have also set the class type (B)
and the subnet mask.
ie.
	multigate allocates addresses from 130.194.224.241-130.194.224.248
	in the network field I have 33474 (130.194) and 224 in the subnet
	field. The node field is empty
	I have selected dynamically from the assign sectio and inserted 		241-248 as the node range.
	Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0

Any ideas why the nonMacTCP version works and the MacTCP version doesn't??
By the way, I am using system6.0.4 and finder 6.1.4 (international versions)

Any ideas/comments would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Paul
